3. Financial Protection

The Package Travel, Package Holidays and Package Tours Regulations 1992 require us to provide security for the monies that you pay for the package holidays booked from our brochure / website and for your repatriation in the event of our insolvency. We have total financial protection for all of our clients. We provide this security by way of a bond held by the Civil Aviation Authority under ATOL number 10349 and through ABTA.

In respect of all arrangements including flights you will receive a Confirmation invoice from us (or via our authorised agent through which you booked) confirming your arrangements and your protection under our Air Travel Organiser’s Licence. This means that in respect of all arrangements including flights, in the unlikely event of our insolvency, the CAA will ensure that you are not left stranded abroad or will arrange to refund any money you have paid to us for an advance booking except where your contracted arrangements with us do not include transport to and from the UK. In this case, if already abroad, you will be returned to the point where your contracted arrangements with us commenced.

For further information, visit the ATOL website at www.atol.org.uk. The price of our flight inclusive arrangements includes the amount of £2.50 per person as part of the ATOL Protection Contribution (APC) we pay to the CAA. This charge is included in our advertised prices. Not all holiday or travel services offered and sold by us will be protected by the ATOL Scheme. Please ask us to confirm what protection may apply to your booking.

We are also a member of the Association of British Travel Agents (ABTA number Y3529). If your holiday does not include flights, ABTA will financially protect your holiday in the same way.

4. Surcharge

The Company operates a Total Expedition Price which comprises a Tour price paid to the Company and a Tipping Kitty paid to the tour guide at point of departure.. You will be responsible for additional costs such as entrance fees however we will advise you of any additional costs you will be responsible for prior to departure to enable you to budget accordingly.

The price of your confirmed holiday is subject at all times to changes in transport costs such as fuel, scheduled airfares and any other airline cost changes which are part of our contracts with airlines (and their agents), cruise ship operators and any other transport provider; to cost changes arising from government action such as changes in VAT or any other government imposed changes; and to changes in currency exchange rates and to dues, taxes or fees chargeable for services such as landing taxes or embarkation or disembarkation fees at ports and airports any or all of which may result in a variation of your holiday price. We will absorb and you will not be charged for any increase equivalent to 2% of the price of your travel arrangements, which excludes insurance premiums and any amendment charges and/or additional services or travel arrangements. You will be charged for the amount over and above that, plus an administration charge of £1.00 per person together with an amount to cover agents’ commission. If this means that you have to pay an increase of more than 10% of the price of your confirmed travel arrangements (excluding any amendment charges and/or additional services or travel arrangements), you will have the option of accepting a change to another holiday if we are able to offer one (if this is of equivalent or higher quality you will not have to pay more but if it is of lower quality you will be refunded the difference in price), or cancelling and receiving a full refund of all monies paid to us, except for any insurance premiums and any amendment charges and/or additional services or travel arrangements and /or credit card fees. Should you decide to cancel for this reason, you must exercise your right to do so within 14 days from the issue date printed on your final invoice. There will be no change made to the price of your confirmed holiday within 30 days of your departure nor will refunds be paid during this period. Should the price of your holiday go down due to the changes mentioned above, by more than 2% of your confirmed holiday cost, then any refund due will be paid to you. However, please note that travel arrangements are not always purchased in local currency and some apparent changes have no impact on the price of your travel due to contractual and other protection in place.

We reserve the right to amend the price of unsold holidays at any time and correct errors in the prices of confirmed holidays.

5. Single Supplement

There is no mandatory single supplement charge. Clients will share with the same sex in a twin or triple room however you can choose to book a single room at an additional cost. Where a tour consists of an odd number of clients, the Company will choose one client on a random basis to be upgraded to a single room at no additional cost. This is entirely at the discretion of the Company.

6. Insurance

Travel insurance is vital. It is your responsibility to ensure that you take out a comprehensive travel insurance policy to cover you during your travel. We will require full details of your insurance before you travel. You will not be able to travel without valid travel insurance. We will not be liable for any losses howsoever arising, in respect of which insurance cover would otherwise have been available.

7. Accuracy

We endeavour to ensure that all the information and prices both on our website and in our brochures are accurate; however occasionally changes and errors occur and we reserve the right to correct prices and other details in such circumstances. You must check the current price and all other details relating to the arrangements that you wish to book before your booking is confirmed.

We can provide general information about the passport and visa requirements for your trip. Your specific passport and visa requirements and other immigration requirements for you and your party are your responsibility and you should confirm these with the relevant Embassies and/or Consulates. We can provide general information about any health formalities required for your trip but you should check with your own doctor for your own specific circumstances. We do not accept any responsibility if you cannot travel, or incur any other loss because you have not complied with any passport, visa, immigration requirements or health formalities. You agree to indemnify us in relation to any costs which we incur as a result of your failure to comply with any passport, visa, immigration requirements or health formalities. Most countries now require passports to be valid for at least 6 months after your return date. If your passport is in its final year, you should check with the Embassy of the country you are visiting.

An additional deposit plus an administration fee of £50 along with any other non-recoverable charges will be required.

11. Cancellation by You

The cancellation will take effect from the date that written notification from the person who made the booking is received at our offices / via email. We recommend that you use recorded delivery/ read receipt. Any cancellation will incur a charge to reflect the reasonable costs incurred by us in arranging and cancelling your booking. Charges for cancellation after the balance due date will vary due to the complex nature of our travel itineraries. Please note, the costs of many international flights are non refundable. This will be advised to you at the time of booking. The full costs of cancellation will be communicated to you at the point of cancellation.

Arrival transfers from the airport to the tour assembly point are provided within the framework of the Tour Price. However, the Client is responsible for making his or her own arrangements to return to the airport at the culmination of their tour, as return journey airport transfers are not available.

The Company appoints the tour guide who will represent the Company and the Client agrees to accept the decisions of the tour guide, who shall have absolute discretion and authority to implement any necessary decisions to ensure the safe and timely running of the tour. Therefore when booking flights it is the Clients responsibility to ensure that the same are organised to allow sufficient time to arrive promptly at the outset of the tour and coincide correctly with the end of the tour. The Company will not be liable in any way should the Client fail to meet this obligation and subsequently fail to arrive for the departure of their tour.

13. Changes and Cancellations By Us

Nomadic Expeditions will take all reasonable precautions and apply reasonable checks to ensure the safety and comfort of its clients. It is unlikely that the Company will have to make changes to the Clients suggested tour, but these tours are by necessity planned many months in advance. Accordingly, due to the unpredictable nature of some of our tours, the Company reserves the right to make any necessary alterations or amendments to the schedule for any reason, anytime before or after departure. We strongly recommend that you to take out insurance against irrecoverable cancellation costs. If the change is a material change (for example, change of destination, or to a lower standard of accommodation), we will notify you as soon as practically possible and offer you the choice of (i) accepting alternative arrangements; (ii) transfer to another tour with cash adjustments being made; or (iii) cancelling your tour with full refund. Regardless of the option you choose we will pay you compensation, unless the change has been caused by Force Majeure or low bookings, as outlined below:

In addition to the above, the Company reserves the right at any time up to 4 weeks before the departure of any of our tours, to cancel a tour due to the pre determined minimum number of Clients not being reached. A full refund of all monies paid to the company will be refunded to the Client, however no compensation will be payable by the Company upon such a cancellation.

Examples of “minor changes” include the following when made before departure: any change in the advertised identity of the carrier(s), flight timings, and/or aircraft type; a change of outward departure time or overall length of your holiday of twelve hours or less, or a change of accommodation to another of the same standard or classification. If any additional expenses are incurred through delays, accidents or disruption of planned itineraries because of situations or events beyond the Company's control or considered advisable by the Company, such expenses are to be borne by the Client. The Client accepts that situations or events beyond the control of the Company may prevent the Company from supplying services and/or itineraries as described.

Unfortunately we cannot accept responsibility for such events however will provide you with prompt assistance. Unfortunately we cannot cover the costs of meals, overnight accommodation or any other cost resulting from delay. If you face a delay or are denied boarding we advise you to first contact your airline, who may be able to assist.

18. Our Liability

Tours operated or supplied by the Company have been designed to provide participants with an exposure to the true nature of the environment visited and therefore involve an element of potential risk and exposure to potential hazards over and above those associated with normal 'package' holidays. All bookings are accepted on the understanding that the Client appreciates such risk and hazards.

(1) We will accept responsibility for the arrangements we agree to provide or arrange for you as an “organiser” under the Package Travel, Package Holidays and Package Tours Regulations 1992 as set out below. Subject to these booking conditions, if we or our suppliers perform or arrange your contracted holiday arrangements negligently, taking into consideration all relevant factors (for example following the complaints procedure as described in these conditions and the extent to which ours or our employees’ or suppliers’ negligence affected the overall enjoyment of your holiday), we will pay you reasonable compensation. Please note that it is your responsibility to show that we or our supplier(s) have been negligent if you wish to make a claim against us.

(2) We will not be responsible or pay you compensation for any injury, illness, death, loss, damage, expense, cost or other claim of any description if it results from:-

(d) An event which either ourselves or suppliers could not, even with all due care, have foreseen or forestalled.

We limit the amount of compensation we may have to pay you if we are found liable under this clause:

(a) Loss of and/or damage to any luggage or personal possessions and money, the maximum amount we will have to pay you in respect of these claims is £25 per person in total because you are assumed to have adequate insurance in place to cover any losses of this kind.

(b) Claims not falling under (a) above or involving injury, illness or death, the maximum amount we will have to pay you in respect of these claims is twice the price paid by or on behalf of the person(s) affected in total. This maximum amount will only be payable where everything has gone wrong and you or your party has not received any benefit at all from your booking.

(c) Claims in respect of international travel by air, sea and rail, or any stay in a hotel.

i) The extent of our liability will in all cases be limited as if we were carriers under the appropriate Conventions, which include The Warsaw/Montreal Convention (international travel by air); The Athens Convention (with respect to sea travel); The Berne/Cotif Convention (with respect to rail travel) and The Paris Convention (with respect to hotel arrangements). You can ask for copies of these Conventions from our offices. Please contact us. In addition, you agree that the operating carrier or transport company's own 'Conditions of Carriage' will apply to you on that journey. When arranging transportation for you, we rely on the terms and conditions contained within these international conventions and those 'Conditions of Carriage'. You acknowledge that all of the terms and conditions contained in those 'Conditions of Carriage' form part of your contract with us, as well as with the transport company and that those 'Conditions of Carriage' shall be deemed to be included by reference into this contract.

ii) In any circumstances in which a carrier is liable to you by virtue of the Denied Boarding Regulation 2004, any liability we may have to you under our contract with you, arising out of the same facts, is limited to the remedies provided under the Regulation as if (for this purpose only) we were a carrier.

iii) When making any payment, we are entitled to deduct any money which you have received or are entitled to receive from the transport provider or hotelier for the complaint or claim in question.

(3) It is a condition of our acceptance of liability under this clause that you notify any claim to ourselves and our supplier(s) strictly in accordance with the complaints procedure set out in these conditions.

(4) Where any payment is made, the person(s) receiving it (and their parent or guardian if under 18 years) must also assign to ourselves or our insurers any rights they may have to pursue any third party and must provide ourselves and our insurers with all assistance we may reasonably require.

(5) Please note, we cannot accept any liability for any damage, loss or expense or other sum(s) of any description which on the basis of the information given to us by you concerning your booking prior to our accepting it, we could not have foreseen you would suffer or incur if we breached our contract with you; or any business losses.

(7) We will not accept responsibility for services or facilities which do not form part of our agreement or where they are not advertised in our brochure or on our websites. For example any excursion you book whilst away, or any service or facility which your hotel or any other supplier agrees to provide for you.
